Mobilizing Men Against Human Trafficking

Check out mobilizingmen.com for more details about Mobilizing Men Against Human Trafficking - Taking Action to Combat Modern Day Slavery.  Here's some of the information from their website:

"Mobilizing Men is a movement within Winnipeg looking to bring awareness of human trafficking for the purpose of sex slavery and to speak up for the victims who are brutally traumatized.  One goal is to moblize 100 priests, pastors, nuns and leaders who will pray and fast to petition God to break the chains of bondage. A second is to mobilize 1000 men on the 5th of June to do the same."

"Women currently comprise the majority of people fighting against modern-day slavery, but men are the driving force behind the industry, so they’re the ones with the most power to put a stop to it. We want to let them know how much of a difference they can make by providing resources, spreading the word, and volunteering their time."

"Our efforts are focused on abolishing human trafficking and the sex trade through…
• rescuing, supporting, and healing victims;
• identifying, prosecuting, and punishing perpetrators;
• eliminating the demand for exploited women and children;
• supporting existing non-government organizations that already work towards these goals; and
• educating and inspiring men and women about the problem and what they can do to become part of the solution."

"Our values are rooted in and drawn directly from the Word of God. We believe that—through faith, prayer, fasting, and action—God can use us to stop the victimization of men, women, and children, both in North American and around the globe."

"It’s time to take action to set slaves free."

Sunday June 5th, 6:00 – 8:00pm.
